turbotooslow Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 1) What is your guys' TE strategy this year? I loved having an elite TE last year for the first time (Kittle), but I'm having a hard time picking him or Kelce so early. I'm keeping Julio and DJ (10 team, .5 ppr, round drafted doesn't matter), so I'm starting off with two studs. This makes me think that it may be worthwhile taking a shot at Kittle in the early rounds...what would you guys do? Keep in mind all the studs will pretty much be gone... 2) With that being said, I know for a fact that Conner, AB, JuJu, Evans, Keenan, Fournette, Hilton, and Chubb will be available to start the draft. Not sure where I'm picking, but who would you guys target with my first pick (already having Julio and DJ on my team). I'm leaning towards Conner or Chubb...I'd like to have Chubb but I just don't know what to do as this is my first year doing keepers. Thanks guys! Any and all information/opinions is welcome.

League_Champion Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Wait and grab Hunter Henry. He's gonna bust out. Kelce, Ertz & Kittle will cost you dearly. Juju & Chubb for my money. Chubb has been going later than expected int early drafts and I have no idea why. He's a beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's say Henry is off the board - would you be happy getting Cook in the 8th or 9th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaft Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I don't lose sleep over TEs. Everyone has their own philosophy. I take the wait and see approach in the draft and during the season. If an elite tight end is bargain then I take them in the draft, I'm not going to reach. Currently there are only 3 elite TEs in the league, which means only 3 teams will get them. I play in bigger leagues and that TE rarely makes a difference. Now if it's a 10 team league, I can see it making a difference. I like to watch the season progress and see who breaks out.

Montana is da Man Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I'd much rather load up on RBs and WRs than reach for a stud TE. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if you are looking for a dart throw Matt Lacoste will start off as the Pats starting TE while Watson is suspended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8rattoon Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 In bigger leagues I think it's best to wait on TE. Grab Hooper, Andrews or Wallet in rounds 10+ and you'll be fine. Wild card: what's Jason Witten going to do this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
League_Champion Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I think Hooper is really good value this year. I also like Hunter Henry to have a break out season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably wait, like I always do with TEs and QBs, unless the value is too good to pass up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FastSteve Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Use to have an infinity for TE. Best option, wait & don't use a high pick on a TE. Much better to be had. Please see my post. I have BIG offers on the table in a dynasty league. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not super high on Ertz this year; I think he will not see as many looks this year. Engram could do nicely but lotta qb questions linger. Howard is a huge talent but he's always hurt and Arians doesn't utilize TEs much. Ebron will regress. Vance has a ton of upside; I've been targeting him a lot in my 10-team mocks. He could probably be had in the 8th or even 9th rd, depending on where you draft. Good luck. It sounds like your value-based approach is best.
